Chris Burden. Urban Light (2008)

MEETING AT LACMA:
We will meet at LACMA at the Wilshire Blvd. entrance next to the ticket office and Chris Burden's Urban Light sculpture (shown above) at 10:00 AM on the scheduled date.

Please make sure that you have submitted your University of California, Santa Barbara Waiver of Liability, Assumption of the Risk & Indemnity Agreement to Jennifer and Alexis (this is mandatory– even if you are coming from LA). 

If you do not already have a Twitter account, then please start one for Art 1A since you will be taking pictures and Tweeting responses. Please use the Art 1A and LACMA handles: @Art1AUCSB and @LACMA

5905 Wilshire Boulevard, Los Angeles, CA 90036
Phone: (323) 857-6010

Parking costs $14.00 per vehicle, and it is not part of our free admission. If you are getting a ride in one of the University owned vans (which we will likely be providing), you will be responsible to split the cost of parking (it will be a little over $1.00 for each of you, but the drivers will not incur any of the costs since they are driving you for free).
STUDENTS WHO DON'T GO TO LACMA:
Students who will not be going to LACMA will need to take a trip to downtown Santa Barbara to go to both the Santa Barbara Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara.
